    Planer/Thicknesser on a budget

    I am of very limited experience regarding setting blades on a planer thicknesses but assume that the blade adjustment is there so that a balance can be achieved re alignment with the hottest table and parallelism across a board after thicknesses. Unless everything is spot on ( and I am sure that...

    Planer/Thicknesser on a budget

    It would appear that the ESTA knife system relies on stops on the Self-Set holder locating on the outside diameter of the cutter head. Whilst this might be ok for planing, as outboard tables is adjustable - it might not be the case for thicknessing if the cutter head is not parallel to the...

    coffee table design - robust enough?

    Custard, Jacob, et al Could the side table design be used with some added features to strengthen it, for a coffee table, whilst not being visible in normal use? I have also bought the RM side table design and like 'nabs' would like to progress to a coffee table of similar design. Thanks

    coffee table design - robust enough?

    I will be interested in the replies that you get because I have been thinking beyond the side table design to a coffee table. If you don't get why specific advice about the dimensions, I would consider making the top over long and over wide and then trim it once you have seen it sat on the...

    side table

    A very nice job. It looks good just on its own and is set off by your decor. I have bought the plans from Richard, but not started yet - what you have done will spur me on.

    Katsu router (again).

    I bought the Katsu trimmer and later bought the angled base and the plunge base. I have had no problem with the plunge base - it has worked out fine. Check out the prices for the individual items vs the complete set - at the time I bought mine it was cheaper to buy the items individually! A...

    Router Bit Sizing

    If it is direct link the router's collet I would say no as I don't believe the collet has the range. However if you use it in an extension adaptor that uses an ER collet then I believe it will be OK if the appropriate sized collet is used. I believe the ER collets have a range of 1mm - so a 12.7...

    Advice sought on multi purpose ladders

    I had one or a short while - I used it once in fully extended mode and twice in 'trestle' mode (when hedge trimming). Two tread pages were included for use in 'trestle' mode - on the second (and last) occasion that I used it this way I somehow managed to assemble the plates wrong, resulting in...

    Drill and re-tap a plane sole?

    Some pics might help to give you the best fix. If you go for fitting a plug that you can screw the rod for the handle to, you might want to drill and tap it before fitting it to the plane body.
